At least from his interview with BattleRap.com in 2015, he has a degree in English Literature from Oxford University, and it seems like he knows English, but at the time of the interview, he hadn't yet rapped in English.

But Fyodorov, known by the stage name Oxxxymiron, has a somewhat incongruous biography for someone who has ascended the heights of the Russian rap world: he grew up in Slough and studied English literature at Oxford University.

oh cool someone noticed russian battles were pullin in a good amount of views and so dizaster wants to immediately battle one of the better guys (im guessing?). except nobody in america will gaf, and it'll likely disappoint as did the battles featuring fliptop cats. do us all a favor and don't do this battle.

This guy gets huge views. One battle has 37 million.
Question is whether those Russian viewers will give a fuck if the battle is in English

It'd be a great move by Dizaster, even if I have no interest in seeing the battle. Unless a ton of Russians are already watching American battles, I don't know if there's any other battle (with a battle rapper) he could take that could gain him more fans.

so you're saying it'll be a battle that gets massive views internationally and has no risk to hurt his rep at home because no one here cares

why would he not do that

Considering that Dizaster has battled in so many different countries over the years, Russia and South Africa are pretty much the only countries left I can think of with battle rap scenes that he hasn't battled in yet.

It's interesting how battle rap seems to take off way more in non english speaking countries. I think maybe it's a combination of it being a completely new thing to them and the battlers already being big names from their music.

If you check the top 60 battlers on Versetracker by average views the only Americans are Lil Sexy, Canibus & Eli Porter lol.

Also this could have been added by anyone but in the battle rap section of Oxxxymiron's Wikipedia it has this.

You realize that battle got over 3 million views? So a couple people cared

Stupid hate is still stupid hate

Which is well under half the views a Loonie battle usually gets. And that was released on Fliptop. Don't expect this battle to get those sort of views if it's released on KOTD. Shits going to be horrible.
